PayPal wants to call me

[lucheto1]

Hey guys i tried logging in my aged account but i forgot my password so obviosly i clicked forgotten password. When i did that a big red ! popped up and said they want to hear more of me(call them). Is there any way i can bypass this? I dont want to call them because the account is stealth/⊗⊗⊗⊗.

Don't you know the details of that stealth account?
They will just ask basic questions, like the name, address, last number of card attached, etc.

Something similar happened on one of my stealths awhile back, I got a message that said "PayPal is looking out for you - we noticed some unusual activity, etc". Upon calling them, they asked the dreaded public records database questions to unlock the account. I hung up and called back, the second rep told me to confirm my name/address, then was able to unlock the account.

What happens will depend on who you speak to.

Keeping records like that is pretty basic

I’ll have to agree on this, I have a big note book that’s keeping all my accounts from 10 years ago in it. All hand written and updated by hand if I need to.

Anyways, no point in crying over spilt milk.

So you actually have the login or none at all?

try another browser, but always keep records in text file.
I just print off the details, put them into an envelope with the sim card used.
write the name on the envelope of the account.

This is why you keep ALL records for your accounts- everything.
